About the Book
Alpha Wolves is a dramatic story exploring the continuing struggle between strength and wisdom.
A few years ago, Biologists discovered what none of them thought was possible. Ex-alpha male wolves were running in packs. The occurrence of the "Lone Wolf" was one that was common to naturalists worldwide. Within the wolf pack, there is an alpha male and alpha female who are the leaders of the pack. When a younger wolf gains strength, it can challenge the alpha male for pack leadership. If the challenge is successful, the younger one takes over leadership of the pack and forces the older male wolf to leave the pack. Traditionally, the older wolf would become a Lone Wolf. Within this context, the conflict between wisdom, generally acknowledged to be acquired over time, and strength, often associated with youth and vitality, is explored in a powerful and moving story. Alpha Wolves is a riveting story with a rich set of characters.About the Author
Bruce Taylor Hudson was born in Alton, IL in 1956. Shortly after his birth, his parents moved to Italy and worked as missionaries for the next three years. Upon returning from Italy, they continued in their faith functioning as teachers and pastors through their retirement.
After completing High School, Bruce joined the US Marine Corps where he served in a line company for three years and was honorably discharged. Bruce completed his undergraduate work in Sociology and graduate degree in Criminal Psychology while working as a Deputy Sheriff. After finishing his graduate degree, he joined the US Air Force. He served for eight years and was promoted to the rank of Captain. Bruce served in Desert Shield/Desert Storm where he was awarded the Bronze Star for Valor. Bruce has an enduring love for animals and often finds a greater nobility and honor among them than he does amongst human beings. It can?t be identified scientifically that animals have the capacity for love, however, they do have the capacity for unflinching loyalty and ?that ain?t half bad.?
